Psalmus 122

Psalm 122

122:1 Ad te levávi óculos meos, * qui hábitas in cælis.
122:2a Ecce, sicut óculi servórum * in mánibus dominórum suórum,
122:2b Sicut óculi ancíllæ in mánibus dóminæ suæ: * ita óculi nostri ad Dóminum, Deum nostrum, donec misereátur nostri.
122:3 Miserére nostri, Dómine, miserére nostri: * quia multum repléti sumus despectióne:

122:1 To you I have lifted up my eyes, * you who dwell in the heavens.
122:2a Behold, as the eyes of servants * are on the hands of their masters,
122:2b As the eyes of the handmaid are on the hands of her mistress: * so are our eyes toward the Lord our God, until he have mercy on us.
122:3 Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: * for we are greatly filled with contempt:
122:4 For our soul is greatly filled: * a reproach for the prosperous, and contempt for the proud.

Psalmus 123

Psalm 123

123:1 Nisi quia Dóminus erat in nobis, dicat nunc Israël: * (2a) nisi quia Dóminus erat in nobis,
123:2b Cum exsúrgerent hómines in nos, * (3a) forte vivos deglutíssent nos:
123:3b Cum irascerétur furor eórum in nos, * (4) fórsitan aqua absorbuísset nos.
123:5 Torréntem pertransívit ánima nostra: * fórsitan pertransísset ánima nostra aquam intolerábilem.
123:6 Benedíctus Dóminus * qui non dedit nos in captiónem déntibus eórum.
123:7a Ánima nostra sicut passer erépta est * de láqueo venántium:
123:7b Láqueus contrítus est, * et nos liberáti sumus.
123:8 Adiutórium nostrum in nómine Dómini, * qui fecit cælum et terram.

123:1 If the Lord had not been among us, let Israel now say: * (2a) if the Lord had not been among us,
123:2b When men rose up against us, * (3a) perhaps they would have swallowed us alive:
123:3b When their fury raged against us, * (4) perhaps the water would have engulfed us.
123:5 Our soul has passed through a torrent: * perhaps our soul would have passed through the unbearable water.
123:6 Blessed be the Lord * who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
123:7a Our soul has been rescued like a sparrow * from the snare of the hunters:
123:7b The snare is broken, * and we have been delivered.
123:8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, * who made heaven and earth.

Psalmus 124

Psalm 124

124:1 Qui confídunt in Dómino, sicut mons Sion: * non commovébitur in ætérnum, qui hábitat (2a) in Ierúsalem.
124:2b Montes in circúitu eius: ‡ et Dóminus in circúitu pópuli sui, * ex hoc nunc et usque in sǽculum.
124:3 Quia non relínquet Dóminus virgam peccatórum super sortem iustórum: * ut non exténdant iusti ad iniquitátem manus suas.
124:4 Bénefac, Dómine, bonis, * et rectis corde.
124:5 Declinántes autem in obligatiónes addúcet Dóminus cum operántibus iniquitátem: * pax super Israël.

124:1 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion: * he who dwells (2a) in Jerusalem shall not be moved for ever.
124:2b Mountains are round about it: ‡ and the Lord is round about his people, * from this time forth and even for evermore.
124:3 For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: * lest the just stretch forth their hands to iniquity.
124:4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, * and to the upright of heart.
124:5 But those who turn aside into bonds, the Lord shall lead away with the workers of iniquity: * peace upon Israel.

Psalmus 125

Psalm 125

125:1 In converténdo Dóminus captivitátem Sion: * facti sumus sicut consoláti:
125:2a Tunc replétum est gáudio os nostrum: * et lingua nostra exsultatióne.
125:2b Tunc dicent inter gentes: * Magnificávit Dóminus fácere cum eis.
125:3 Magnificávit Dóminus fácere nobíscum: * facti sumus lætántes.
125:4 Convérte, Dómine, captivitátem nostram, * sicut torrens in Austro.
125:5 Qui séminant in lácrimis, * in exsultatióne metent.
125:6a Eúntes ibant et flebant, * mitténtes sémina sua.
125:6b Veniéntes autem vénient cum exsultatióne, * portántes manípulos suos.

125:1 When the Lord turned back the captivity of Zion: * we became like those who are comforted.
125:2a Then our mouth was filled with joy: * and our tongue with exultation.
125:2b Then they shall say among the nations: * The Lord has done great things for them.
125:3 The Lord has done great things for us: * we are become joyful.
125:4 Turn back, O Lord, our captivity, * as a torrent in the south.
125:5 Those who sow in tears * shall reap with exultation.
125:6a Going they went and wept, * casting their seeds.
125:6b But coming they shall come with exultation, * carrying their sheaves.

Psalmus 126

Psalm 126

126:1a Nisi Dóminus ædificáverit domum, * in vanum laboravérunt qui ædíficant eam.
126:1b Nisi Dóminus custodíerit civitátem, * frustra vígilat qui custódit eam.
126:2a Vanum est vobis ante lucem súrgere: * súrgite postquam sedéritis, qui manducátis panem dolóris.
126:2b Cum déderit diléctis suis somnum: * (3) ecce heréditas Dómini fílii: merces, fructus ventris.
126:4 Sicut sagíttæ in manu poténtis: * ita fílii excussórum.
126:5 Beátus vir, qui implévit desidérium suum ex ipsis: * non confundétur cum loquétur inimícis suis in porta.

126:1a Unless the Lord builds the house, * those who build it have labored in vain.
126:1b Unless the Lord guards the city, * he who keeps it watches in vain.
126:2a It is vain for you to rise before the light: * rise after you have sat down, you who eat the bread of sorrow.
126:2b When he shall have given sleep to his beloved: * (3) behold, the inheritance of the Lord is children: a reward, the fruit of the womb.
126:4 Like arrows in the hand of the mighty: * so the children of those who have been shaken out.
126:5 Blessed is the man who has filled his desire with them: * he shall not be confounded when he speaks to his enemies in the gate.

Capitulum Hymnus Versus

Apo 1:1-2

Apo 1:1-2

Significávit Deus, quæ opórtet fíeri cito, loquens per Angelum suum servo suo Ioánni, qui testimónium perhíbuit verbo Dei, et testimónium Iesu Christi, quæcúmque vidit.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, in order to make known to his servants the things that must soon occur, and which he signified by sending his Angel to his servant John; he has offered testimony to the Word of God, and whatever he saw is the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Deo grátias.

Thanks be to God.

Te, splendor et virtus Patris,
Te vita, Iesu, córdium,
Ab ore qui pendent tuo,
Laudámus inter Angelos.

Tibi mille densa míllium
Ducum coróna mílitat;
Sed éxplicat victor Crucem
Míchaël salútis sígnifer.

Dracónis hic dirum caput
In ima pellit tártara,
Ducémque cum rebéllibus
Cælésti ab arce fúlminat.

Contra ducem supérbiæ
Sequámur hunc nos príncipem,
Ut detur ex Agni throno
Nobis coróna glóriæ.

Deo Patri sit glória,
Qui, quos redémit Fílius,
Et Sanctus unxit Spíritus,
Per Angelos custódiat.
Amen.

O Jesu Life, spring of the soul!
The Father's power and glory bright!
thee with the Angels we extol;
From thee they draw their life and light.

Thy thousand thousand hosts are spread
Embattled o'er the azure sky;
But Michael bears thy standard dread,
And lifts the mighty Cross on high.

He in that Sign the rebel power.
Did with their Dragon Prince expel;
And hurled them from the heaven's high towers,
Down like a thunderbolt to hell.

Grant us, with Michael, still, O Lord,
Against the prince of pride to fight;
So may a crown be our reward,
Before the Lamb's pure throne of light.

To God the Father, with the Son
And Holy Paraclete, with thee,
As evermore hath been before,
Be glory through eternity.
Amen.

In conspéctu Angelórum psallam tibi, Deus meus.

In the sight of the Angels I will sing to you, my God.

Adorábo ad templum sanctum tuum, et confitébor nómini tuo.

I will adore toward your holy temple, and I will give praise to your name.

1:49 For the Almighty has done great things for me, * and holy is his name.
1:50 His mercy is from age to age * for those who fear him.
